Teresa B. - Traveled, November 2023
Because I was dumped for six days due to be honest about testing positive for Covid (which I caught from my fellow travellers who did not admit it). The Covid policy the company has miraculously was only available after I returned and complained. All my Comms during my stay that requested proof of this policy were ignored.

With it being a classic tour, it had a equal balance of culture, history and some relaxing time to enjoy the beaches or do other options as you choose.

Most of all, I liked that it is a chance to make new friends with people from different countries with international background. And it's very cool that there are optional activities which can be taken or refused during the trip if a participant wants just to chill

The Trip at Bali & Lombok Classic was great, regarding the landscape, organization and guide. Also the group was very nice. For the style of travel you should be a very open-minded, sociable and uncomplicated person. so I would only recommend the style of travel to friends/ family who fits to this kind of persons.
